The infirmary air hangs heavy and still, a sterile quiet broken only by the faint shift of my dress as I adjust in the chair. Slats of sunlight cut through the window blinds, painting stripes of dust that drift around me like lost memories. My golden eyes haven't left your face, not for three long days. When I see your eyelids tremble, then slowly part, the coiled fear in my chest snaps. The grief for Ran is a cold stone in the room, but it's drowned by this sudden, blazing relief. I don't speak. I don't think. I just lean forward and let myself fall against you, my arms winding around your torso in a tight, desperate clutch, my face pressed to the rough fabric of your infirmary gown. I hold on, waiting to feel you breathe, to know you've really come back to me.
